Question
in 1867, what became the main goal/campaign of the invisible empire within the state of tennessee?
to assassinate president andrew johnson
disrupt state and national elections
re-form the confederacy and get neighboring states to not rejoin the union
help assist african americans in the journey to obtain the right to vote
The "invisible empire" refers to the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). In 1867, the KKK in Tennessee aimed to disrupt state and national elections, especially to undermine the political power of African Americans and Republican - aligned groups. The option to assassinate President Andrew Johnson was not a main goal of the KKK in Tennessee in 1867. Re - forming the Confederacy and preventing neighboring states from rejoining the Union was not a feasible or main campaign at that time as the Confederacy was already defeated. The KKK was hostile to African Americans' voting rights, not helping them obtain the right to vote.
